How is fair
That we have to hide
Who we love
If we feel feminine, masculine, neither, or somewhere in-between
Why do we have to be afraid
Of being ourselves
Why do we get bullied, shut out, and abandoned
For saying how we feel
We shouldn’t be
This is a problem
Why do we need to be scared about coming out
Telling our parents
Shouldn”t be something that can leave us with no roof over our heads
Telling your classmates
Shouldn’t give them reasons to bully you
Telling your friends
Shouldn’t make you afraid of losing them,
You shouldn’t have to hide
You shouldn’t have to be afraid
You are perfect no matter what
And that will never change

Your completely right and well expressed ! Sorry that you are bullied
it's alright! it's mostly verbal and mental, besides im used to it 🙂
Being used to it doesn't make it ok😢 🌈 🌹💝🌞 REACH OUT!!! We,and I really mean WE,..live in a time of change. There are resources,please seek them out and contact them😉✌🕊
Exactly. It's so unfair (and I know that word is kinda childish, but there isn't really a better word) that I have to hide the fact that I like boys, girls and other just because people say it's gross. I used to be homophobic so I understand how they think, but when I was 11 I realized it didn't matter. Why does it matter to me if a girl likes a girl, or if a boy likes a boy? Or if a girl isn't really a girl but a boy? That answer is, it doesn't.
I was 11. Parents are like 40 something (most of the time), so aren't you supposed to be more "mature"?
